Issues in Progress
President's Commission
on the Status of Women
After President Bill Chace's visit to the January meeting, the executive
committee met to discuss the semester's remaining work, Chair JoAnn McKenzie
reported at the commission's Feb. 5 meeting. They agreed that subcommittees
should continue to work on the issues presented to the president. The commission
will invite Chace to its April meeting to "see what he's done, what've
we've done," McKenzie said, and then issue a final report in May.
McKenzie also noted the information about the PCSW's annual student writing
awards were advertised in The Wheel the week of Feb. 9. She also plans to
send an e-mail announcement to the "all-user" listserv and others
to promote the award.
In Joyce Jones' absence, McKenzie reported Jones is trying to change
the date of the spring banquet, at which former Spelman College President
Johnnetta Cole will speak, from April 9 to April 8 in order to host the
event at the Carlos Museum.
McKenzie passed out a copy of both the current and drafted new bylaws
for review. She asked members to return comments or corrections about content
by Feb. 20 via e-mail or interoffice mail. They will discuss changes and
recommendations at March's meeting.
That meeting will be held March 5 at 3:30 p.m. in 405 Administration
Building.
